I'm not authorised to read from file VFPLF06A.BARVBDDTA?

[pkoopmanpk]

Recently my client decided to split the VBA (dev/test) partition into a VBA (test) and VBD (Dev) partition on a new LANSA instance.

All data on the DC@PGMLIB instance was exported and then Imported on the new DCOPGMLIB. After that all data on the VBA partition was copied to VBD.

So far so good. Logging in on VBA works fine for all users.

On VBD it works for the system user DCOPGMLIB.
But all other users get the following error:

LANSA error.jpg (35.42 KiB) Viewed 30248 times

We use Lansa in a Superserver setting with an IBMi backend.

As far as I can see VFPPF06 (and VFPLF06A) and VFPPF07 should be accessible. I even set them to authority *PUBLIC *ALL. But no luck.

Anyone suggestions as to what is going wrong here?

Hi

Did you export your users from DEV then import them into the test system. This is done through the VLF Administration.

Hi Tim,

I tried that too, but for some reason the import froze. I canceled the job through Windows Taskmanager after a few minutes.

Hi Peter

If it is locking up when doing an import then it is likely an authority issue. Not sure what. It is probably using the userid you have logged in to the VLF to perform the import and it does not have enough authority. Try with the partition owner if you can.

You could try and export from VBD and import into VBA partitions on the IBMI the two files VFPPF06 and VFPPF07. This will run as partition owner so will bypass your authority issues.
